Thousands/millions of years before that, it was warm. And before that, more glaciers! And so on.

So, we should absolutely, positively treat our environment better and reduce carbon emissions and make all the recommended changes to our behaviors. BUT...it is likely that we have only just scratched the surface of knowing what really goes on with our planet, and major climate changes are sure to occur again, irrespective of what we do or what we burn or what we don't do or burn.

This article states exactly what you said. Apparently when the Flintstones switched to electric vehicles, it did nothing to stop the glaciers from melting. And if the glaciers hadn’t melted, this lake would probably not exist.
